Family Dinner
"Manny? Kelly?" Bea asked over the comms. "Could you meet me in the den?"

"Yeah, it's a good thing. Uncle Laz's fifteenth birthday. They think he's finally ready to be in the same room with Kelly."

Manny smiled in relief. "That's great to hear, Bea."

"He so isn't." Kelly comments from the doorway.

Bea sighs and smiles. "Probably not, but at least it's less absolutely horrific than the idea of bringing you home for his birthday dinner when he was turning twelve. Interested?" She looked to Manny. "And what about you?"

"Until you consider the fact that if he decides that I'm the fine role model I obviously am, there's a much higher chance he'd be tried as an adult now, over when he was twelve, right?"

"Wait, you mean..meet your parents?" And Manny will blanch a moment. "I..si, si I can do that."

A deeper sigh. "Granted, there is that. But I'm hoping that he's developing pretty good judgment by now."
Manny gets a smile. "Well, I'm glad. And even if Kelly doesn't come, thereby preventing the reassurance that absolutely nothing you say could seem awkward in comparison, I want you to know that it will still be fine."

"I didn't say no. I'm sure jail would be a character building experience for him. You know I love spending time with you, big sister."

"Well..to be honest Bea..I'm not worried about what I might say," Manny explains awkwardly.

"Mom and Dad would never let Uncle Laz get himself arrested. That's just asking for him to end up in a lab somewhere. But you're invited, and it's your call. And Manny, Dad does not maintain a lot of telepathic contact when he's not working."

"Oh!" Manny says with relief, wiping a bead of sweat away. "Bien, that could have been..awkward."

"Though, I mean, you never know. Sneaky, sneaky telepaths. He could be violating your thoughts at any time. Especially if he suspects you're picturing his little girl naked... I mean, not that I'd blame you."

And Manny blanched some more. "Dios..if I think about not thinking it and it pops in there..."

"I know! Especially now that I said something. And you know, being all nervous and struggling not to be distracted is just going to increase the chances of him catching some idea of your surface thoughts, right?"

"Hey, no creating panic loops. Manny, think about this. If he suspected you were thinking about stuff that he wouldn't want to hear, he'd have his shields up completely, not go looking. Because he doesn't want to hear that."

Okay, Kelly was definitely not helping, which was likely the point. He then listened to what Bea told him.

"That..that makes sense."

"It makes sense up until you hear about every story about fathers, daughters and boyfriends in the history of ever. But ok, since you asked nicely, Sis... sure, no more panic loops, probably. And I'll come along. It would be good to see Mom again too."

Bea smiled. "Thanks, Kelly."

"Maybe I should just think about puppies the whole time."

"Just to we're clear, that's puppies like young, fluffy junior attack dogs, as opposed to puppies, the euphemism for tits, right?"

Manny just gave Kelly a flat, unamused look. "Baby dogs."

Bea laughs. "Everything is going to be fine. We'll teleport out tomorrow afternoon."

"You'll do much better around this family if you get a sense of humor. Well, except with Bea's Dad. His scowl is welded on. Don't let it unnerve you or make it seem like he knows what you're thinking. He probably doesn't.... anyway... tomorrow! See you then!"

"I, do so have a sense of humor," Manny said indignantly. "I just don't want to anger a man who could filet my mind."
